a bit slower than a IDE Zip drive then.

Right then. later this week I think I'll give Eyetech a call about thier
EZCam then! I wouldnt even attempt to get 16megs off a card over the serial
interface! It would take longer than 20mins I guess easily :-/

(compared to 5.5meg in 30 secs in the AA review)

You dont need it though do you really.. unless you meant the software to
control the camera? Canon used to be pretty co-operative with amiga
developers iirc didnt they? perhaps they would be willing to supply the
info if the USB interfaces appear.
